Best Engineering Schools in the West

Hello eveyone,

I am thinking about going for graduate studies in Electrical Engineering and wondering where to apply. I know UC Berkeley, Stanford and, UCLA are good schools but do you guys have any other good schools on your mind?

Here are top ranked west coast engineering schools

Stanford University

University of California-Berkeley

U of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

California Institute Technology
University of Southern California
Univ of California-San Diego

Univ of California-Santa Barbara

University of California-Los Angeles
University of Washington
University of California-Davis

University of Arizona
Case Western Reserve Univ
University of California-Irvine

Oregon State University

some others you may want to look at not sure about their programs

Calpoly
Nevada-Reno
Arizona State

Fraudz got it nailed.

Wasim, in case, if you prefer to check out following Universities.

  • University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC)

  • Iowa State University (ISU)

  • University of Iowa (UI)

  • Universit of Northern Iowa (UNI)

  • Michgan State University (MSU)

For cost versus quality, University of Texas at Austin ranks # 1 followed by Verginia Tech!

And just as an aside, it is not where you go to school (though that does matter) but rather what you do when you are there (how well you learn) that is what really counts. Just look at some of the famous authors of books and you will see there are so many profs from non top tier schools yet are obviously very well regarded in their field.

Just a thought when it comes to making your money count.

My dad has his Master’s in Engineering from
University of Pennsylvania
